"The Dawnseeker" is directed by Justin Price. It stars Franziska Schissler, Alexander Kane, Jason Skeen and Khu, The story is a sci-fi horror actioner which pits five mercenaries against a dangerous alien creature.2245, the Earth's sun has dwindled and no longer provides the energy needed to sustain human life. Five hired mercenaries travel to an uncharted planet to collect a rare mineral known as stardust to replenish the dying star. After their spaceship crashes on
the alien planet, they are stalked and hunted by a creature far more advanced than anything they have ever encountered before. "The Dawnseeker" is a Sci thriller set in a dystopian future with Earth'so future hanging in the balance. The story has humanity searching for one last chance to save the sun and Earth's existence, seeking a material in the cosmos that can restore the dying sun. It consists of galactic quests, alien confrontation, and man's inevitable extinction. Justin Price's epic tale is a broad, ambitious one, with an apocalypse in progress, a journey to the stars, and a battle against an alien adverser. All while searching for a rare mineral that can bring life back to the sun. It is enough to any RPG gamer or programmer giddy. And for a B movie experience, "The Dawnseeker" tries it's best to make sci-fi fans just as giddy.Unfortunately the ambition far exceeds the execution here. Whether overzealous excitement during production, or budget restraints, the movie never really reaches its capabilities. The acting is choppy and character direction, at times, seems nonsensical. The story is simpleasy and moves from point A to point B easily enough, but at times thefilm seems confusing and broken, when simplicity seems possible. It could be that the characters aren't developed as well as needed for the cast to sell the story, or it could just be me.The special effects are well thought out, well done for the most part. There are flaws sprinkled throughout the CGI sci-fi stuff, and creature effects on the alien comes off as costumey. Still the thing looked original and the overall action sequences come together nicely. I have seen worse and "The Dawnseeker" is one of the better B movie attempts- in a world that embraced Sharkado mind you. Overall there is some quality moments here, and an exciting futuristic saga happening. (2.5/5)

Norwegian revenge thriller "Revenge" is directed by Kjersti Steinsbø. The film stars Siren Jørgensen, Frode Winther, Maria Bock, Anders Baasmo Christiansen. It is a dramatic, intelligent story focusing on one woman's plans for retribution.

Travelling under a false identity, Rebekka sets out on a mission to confront Morten Holand whom she shares a dark secret surrounding the death of her sister. As her plan falls apart, Rebekka is forced to face the devastating consequences of her actions and
must decide how far she is willing to go to seek revenge."Revenge" is a steady, methodical character study, driven by cruelty and fueled by retribution. The story is a classic revenge thriller tale in that it focuses on one woman's journey to exact revenge. Kjersti Steinsbø's prose stays more within the drama and psychological methodology of the victim's motivatio, as opposed to traditional films focusing on graphic violence. "Revenge" works when connecting the viewer with a sympathetic perspective, but fails when approaching the thriller edge, needed to excite the story's more psychological criminality eluded to in the plot details.The film does manage to be an original approach to the revenge subgenre story. Instead of going for gore and gratuitous violence. Steinsbø chooses a more empathetic, dramatic approach, allowing for the viewer to be imaginative in interpreting the moments as they unfold. It proves well at giving the movie a more sophisticated look and feel. Unfortunately the volume of material presented isn't enough to maintain the initial level of suspense, and intrigue the beginning builds.Overall "Revenge" is a delightful, captivating melodrama that tip-toes around rap-revenge tropes without getting dirty. Shot beautifully and told with heartfelt honesty. However it will only resonate with indie world cinema crowds, satisfied with drama framed by some of the world's prettiest scenery. Horror and traditional revenge thriller fans will find very little to sustain them during the film's running time. (3/5)

The film chronicles the journey of a religious man, who rejects God and his faith, after the tragic death of his pregnant wife and then challenges the Devil. He receives a visit from his priest, who pushes him to question his own beliefs.
The Priest turns out to be a mirror of his own insanity, pushing the boundaries between heaven and hell."Sacred Heart" is a heartfelt exploration into pain, loss, and one's struggle with spirituality. The film is heavy on dialog with most of the story focusing on a confrontional conversation between the protagonist and antagonist. It plays out in an almost Machiavellian manner. The intense subject matter, and journey of the lead character is told with an almost elegant and personal insight by writer / director Kosta Nikas.The cinematography is done beautifully, bouncing between stark realism and surreal moments meant to convey emotional turmoil. The action is limited, most of the scenes rely heavily on subliminal, and suggestive imagery to create suspense. There are very few thrills beyond the meat of the story - tragedy, recovery, mostly explored through dialog. The ending offers the film's only real edge.Overall "Sacred Heart" isn't a film that most crime- noir or action-thriller fans will enjoy. The drama is long and heavy. There is very little real thrilling action, or major excitement. Still, the story is relatable, the characters are strong, and the film - on a whole - is nicely told. (3/5)

Directed by Colin Floom and Greg Nemer, "Dead Love" is a modern arthouse folktale focusing on loss, mortality and personal conflict. It stars Kate Linder, Nicole Elizabeth Olson, Grayson Low, Bob Buckley, Elias Harger, and Deborah Curtis. Brandon is a young train engineer whose world is upended when his mother suddenly takes her own life. At the funeral home, he meets Fiona, a beautiful and mysterious mortician who takes a strong interest in him. Soon they discover they share a passion for music. And when Fiona serenades him with an ancient folk song, their lives become entwined for eternity.The story is a slow paced melodrama, teasing at a macabre obsession with mortality. At first "Dead Love" unfolds like a Gothic prose crying out against death'sentence cruel nature, and the hollowness felt through loss. The arthouse style feels a bit "Six Feet Under" and a little Park Chan-wook. The acting is above par with Nicole Elizabeth Olsen giving an impressive performance. The real stand out however is costar Bob Buckley as Lassiter. He also gives us our only real suspense and psychological edge onscreen. Some moments are choppy when the larger plot material unfolds and as attractive a lead as Grayson Low is, his character is a bit too two-dimensional- barely emoting beyond his initial character traits. There is only a mild level of horror that can be applied to "Dead Love". The film keeps with a steady pace marred in melancholy that never really kicks it off to create any rwal energy. But it is told beautifully and the surrealism is delish. All said, "Dead Love" has a niche arthouse audience but with no real thrills and a whimper of horror in the last act, this one will not entertain most horror fans. (2.5/5)

High school students Eric Carter and Johnny Grissom are best friends. Johnny is a heavy metal rebel nicknamed "Johnny Gruesome" by his classmates. When Johnny is murdered while on a drunken joyride, his killer persuades Eric and Johnny's girlfriend to help
him make the murder look like an accidental death. Johnny returns from the grave as a murderous, wisecracking zombie hell bent on revenge.

"Inhumanity" is written and directed by Joe McReynolds and stars Darcel Danielle, Diana Rose, Ford Austin, and Leviticus Wolfe. It is a neo-noir full of throttled performances and dire consequence, both in story and in action. Narrowly escaping death at the hands of a notorious serial killer, Jessa Dixon awakens from a coma to learn her father committed suicide. Unconvinced, she investigates the suspicious suicide and uncovers a dark corporate conspiracy involving the police and the psychotic killer that almost took her life. "Inhumanity" relies heavily on its neo-noir style, building on a 'Big Guy' mentality with cult film mayhem. The story is part crime thriller and part psychological melodrama. Initially I got a "Seven" familiarity from the energy and style of Joe McReynolds story telling. There is a lot that is going on in this one , and the sporadic jumps between scenes, shaky cinematography can atest to it.The cast do well to their commitment to the story. They embody their characters with grandiose nature. At times giving honest, compelling performances, and at other times campy falderal. All playing out as sporadic as the plot point jumps and sketchiness. It isn't all bad, but it isn'tall 'so-bad-so-good' either. At times it all just under minds McReynolds' intent and pulls focus from the film's momentum. Plus side- Leviticus Wolfe is a big draw to "Inhumanity" as Six Pack Sam.The effects are, for the most part, well-produced, low budget mix of blood, violence and pulp mystery. Shady dealings, crime-action, and frenetic concepts help to move toward that "True Grit" attitude. Again, at times the execution is flawless, other times it all falls flat or is over-shadowed by the over-zealous acting. (2.5/5)

A trailer has dropped for Grant McPhee directed "Far From The Apple Tree". The fantasy horror stars Sorcha Groundsell and Victoria Liddelle in what is being described as dark pop art cinema. It is expected to have a release toward the end of the year.

Every year thousands follow Hell Fest to experience fear at the ghoulish carnival of nightmares.

But for one visitor, Hell Fest is not the attraction – it is a hunting ground. An opportunity to slay in plain view of a gawking audience too caught up in the terrifyingly fun atmosphere to recognize the horrific reality playing out before their eyes. As the body count and frenzied excitement of the crowds continue to rise, he turns his masked face to Natalie, Brooke, Taylor and their boyfriends who will fight to survive the night.

"Animalistic" is a slice of extreme cinema playing on rape/revenge tropes classic to the subgenre which gave birth to the 1978 cult classic "I Spit On Your Grave". Directed by Sonny Laguna and Tommy Wiklund, the film pushes the visual shock level in "Animalistic". It stars Hanna Oldenburg, Ralf Beck, Torbjorn Andersson, Niki Nordenskjold, and Cheryl Murphy.In this chilling thriller, Emma, an oil company executive, travels from Australia to the U.S to close a politically controversial deal. On her way to speak at a press conference, she hails a taxicab, but is drugged and abducted by the driver. She awakens bound in an isolated, filthy cabin and at the mercy of a trio of psychopaths, who she will have to turn the tables on in order to escape alive.The story isn't very original nor does it expand upon the subgenre, but it does explore the subject matter with a push toward brutal, visceral, unease which tests the viewer's tolerance level toward revenge horror that plays in torture-porn lanes. The whole subgenre is hard to watch even the ones worthwhile, "Animalistic" takes you to the bitter edge of ability. The acting is intense, acceptable performances that sell the cruelty set upon the protagonist, as well as that which show the assailants as disgusting members of humanities worst. It isn't stellar, but enough to bring a very dark and disturbing story to life. It does bare mentioning that at times the acting is shaky and some moments feel too redundant. The effects are impressive. Graphic, gory scenes of horror and blood stained settings are good enough to make you gag at the grittiness on screen. The practical elements work well and when the killing goes to the good during the revenge portion of the movie, it works well! Plus the cringe worthy atmosphere and anxiety enduring score help pull you into the nightmare.Overall, "Animalistic" lacks originality and creativity. However what you get is a purist, straightforward exploration of set expectations done good enough to satisfy most fans of the subgenre. All others with no taste or interest in this style of exploitation should stay away. But if you wanna check it out I say go for it! (3/5)

Friday is the last day for submission to the festival at current pricing, before there is one last increase for the extended deadline on September 16th. That means there isn't much time left to send us your crazy, weird, and screwed up films.

"Epidemic" is a outbreak horror directed by Stephen Michael Giglio. The film stars Amanda K. Morales, Andrew Hunsicker, and Joe Walz. It is a drama driven nightmare covering the onset of horrific viral outbreak.A deadly pathogen is unleashed and unknowingly carried to Dana Overbeck's 30th birthday party, where her estranged father, Rufus, is coming to make amends."Epidemic" is a melodrama driven by human emotion as related to crisis. There is a social gathering of friends and family that feels as tragic as the horror before them. The film sets up a familiar scenario, well too actually. There is an equal tragedy of a father seeking an ill-fated attempt to make amends with his estranged daughter. Dramatic and sad characters struggling to overcome life only to face a nightmarish ordeal similar to "Cabin Fever". The story has some flaws, but does create a cool picture of early onset pandemia on a stripped down, personal level. Some of the characters seem underdeveloped, with limited presence on screen. However a couple of the characters are relatable, thanks to believable performances by the actors. Mostly though the film barely offers mediocre performances, contrived melodrama and a strong disconnect from the script- when put to action.The special effects are minimal, practical choices that work well on camera, with a few minor flaws that are only noticeable when the lighting betrays them. For the most part the creature design and creative use of effects budget works to the films advantage. The only downside is the limited presence the horror has on screen- taking a backseat to the drama. Overall "Epidemic" will feel boring, and be a bit of a disappointment to most horror fans. It will appeal to the niche low budget community with its indie feel and gag worthy notable practical effects. (2/5)
